In this presentation, we will explore the history and evolution of quality assurance in roadway materials sampling and testing, highlighting the critical role these processes play in ensuring durable, safe, and cost-effective infrastructure. We will discuss the origins of quality assurance practices...
Scour is a phenomenon where the flow of water erodes streambed and bank material. This erosion can threaten the stability of critical infrastructure like dams, bridges, culverts, and roadways, making it a vital concern for engineers. Among these structures, bridges are particularly vulnerable, as scour...
An important tool for identifying and reducing hazards in any industry; a job hazard analysis (JHA), also called a job safety analysis (JSA), is a technique to identify the dangers of specific tasks in order to reduce the risk of injury to workers. This presentation will discuss the following items...
Explore how traditional traffic engineering has unintentionally prioritized speed over safety, endangering pedestrians, cyclists, and drivers alike. In this presentation, we'll examine the flawed principles behind conventional road design and how they impact our communities. Discover innovative, human-centered...

FHWA has identified developing a Local Roads Safety Plan as an effective starting point to making roads safer. Local Road Safety Plans are developed using a data driven systematic approach of reviewing the features of a roadway network (shoulder widths, curve radius, etc.) to determine safety issues...
A longitudinal joint is the interface between two asphalt mats and is often the first area to fail in an asphalt pavement. Properly constructed longitudinal joints protect pavements from moisture infiltration and increase the service life of the pavement. Attendees of this webinar will gain an understanding...
Local agency maintenance forces are in the best position to be the “eyes and ears” when it comes to identifying situations, that when addressed, could greatly improve safety for the traveling public. This webinar will address safety topics including: Obstructions in Roadway Shoulder Drop-Off Signs...
